When to Pick
- Model 3 — Entry config covers your commute; put budget into color, wheels, or Full Self-Driving (Supervised) later.
- Premium — Cabin and quiet matter more than the Performance badge. Sweet spot for most owners.
- Performance — The drive is the point. Skip if you want a calm highway sedan.
Stay on 3 for a lower sit and easier garage fit. Switch to Model Y for kids, cargo, or a higher seat.
